[font color=\'#000000\']I just talked to Kirk. They have a 20D on order and expect to have brackets (for body, and body and grip) ready 2 to 3 weeks after they get the 20D. It should be reasonable to assume that RRS will do the same.

[font color=\'#000000\']Since you already have the 10D bracket, you could take it into a shop and see how well it fits the 20D. While it may not be a perfect fit, it might fit well enough to be usable.[/font]

[font color=\'#000000\']Thanks. That is what I have decided to do.[/font]

[font color=\'#000000\']And my guess is that since the 20D is smaller, it will probably fit, but the front lip won't quite hit the body and the side relief holes might not be in the right position to pass the cable release through. But it may very well be usable, just tighten it down properly so it doesn't want to shift or pivot about the screw.[/font]

Unfortunately, the contours of the new Canon 20D are different from the10D, and it also uses a completely different battery pack. We are inthe process of creating a new custom L-plate for the camera, but wehaven't started one for the battery pack yet. The camera L-plate shouldbe available by the time Canon starts shipping.

[font color=\'#000000\']I have the B56L bracket for the 10D and BG-ED3 grip from Really Right Stuff. Does anyone know if this bracket or the other custom brackets for the 10D from RRS will fit the 20D? The RRS website does not show any useful info in this regard.[/font]

[font color=\'#000000\']My 20D is on order, and I'm sure when they become available I'll get a custom bracket. I've got custom plates on my D30 & 10D, and will probably go for an L bracket with the 20D (plus grip).

However, I also have a Wimberley P5 generic plate, which really does a good job on all the bodies I've tried it on. This way I can use the 20D with my A-S gear immediately I receive it (with or without grip) and when I get an L bracket for the 20D+grip I'll be able to use the P5 on those rare occasions when I work without the grip without investing money in a custom plate which I would rarely use.

The P5 is a great product. Not quite the same as a custom bracket, but worth a look![/font]
